Kidzooona: an indoor garden to learn through play

I am a strong supporter that children is learning through play that is why I wanted to share our lovely experience at Kidzooona located at 5th Level, Waltermart Makati.Kidzooona is operated by Aeon Fantasy Group, a Japan-based company. Kidzoona comes from the Japanese word Kizuna means the "bond" or "connection" between a parent and a child. The moment Luigi step in Kidzooona, he is very happy and excited! Who wouldn't be excited if you are surrounded with toys? Toys are tools that help children learn about themselves. As they play, they learn to get along with others and develop fine and gross motor skills.This indoor playground is both educational and entertaining. It is big, neat, safe and fun-filled environment. It is divided into areas: The Toddler Area, Role Play Town, Ball Pool, Cyber Wheel, Toy Corner, Event Corner and the Parent and Guardian Lounge.Kidzooona Toddler Area Most of the indoor playground caters to 3-12 years old that is why most of the parents are hesitant to let their kids enter an indoor playground for safety reasons. This is the reason why Kidzooona decided to have a toddler area to cater to 0-2 years old kids. The branch in Waltermart Makati is the first branch of Kidzooona to have a toddler area where the little ones can climb, slide, jump, crawl or just want to have a little exercise with their parents.

Role Play TownThis area allows children to play and pretend to be postman, chef, ice cream shop owner, sushi maker, fireman all in one day! Each role comes with cute little outfits for them to wear. I would say that this is my favorite area because there are several stalls for young kids to do pretend play. There are some pretend play scenarios I loved playing as a child and now I get to watch Luigi do the same. Now here comes the bonus part: Play encourages communication. It allows opportunity to develop speech, language and listening skills. Luigi and I talk while we play. I love seeing and hearing some of the scenarios my son come up with.

Cyber WheelMy son and his playmates enjoyed laying down inside and pushing this giant wheel.

Let's push it!

Toy CornerThis corner brings out imagination through educational toys for kids to play and enjoy. There are trains, doll houses, magnetic shapes, puzzles etc. suitable for building fine motor skills.

Event Corner

I am amazed because the Kidzooona staff prepared games for kids. Winners and non-winners of the game received a small token from Kidzooona. Observing the staff, I can say that they are very effective and efficient because even if there are lots of kids, parents and guardians in the area, they are always there to watch and assist you and your kids.

Kidzooona Parent/Guardian LoungeI appreciate this area because (if you have older kids) you can stay here and watch your kids from afar. Not all indoor playgrounds have these cozy lounges.

XOXOXO

Children who play with their parents and friends learn how relationships work through their play experiences. Thank you Mommy Bloggers Philippines for inviting us to come over to play at Kidzooona. This is a one of a kind experience for me and my son. THIS IS ONE FOR THE BOOKS!

I am a parent of a Kinder1 student in University of Perpetual Help Molino Campus. I would like to express my DISGUST when you let him attended school for only eight (8) days. In your observation, he is hyperactive, full of energy, won't sit still, feels agitated, doesn't want to write, doesn't join in the group, doesn't follow commands or instruction, always wanted to go outside, grabs the food of his classmates, difficulty with verbal communication, disruptive behavior. In short, in your eyes, he is a "PROBLEM CHILD".

It appears you had difficulty understanding my son, and being her responsible mother, who may clearly see his flaws and weaknesses, yes, he is hyperactive and has difficulty with verbal communication but he is sweet, affectionate and a capable learner.

Back in summer, when I inquired in your school, you were so accommodating (looks can be deceiving). You told me that you have limited slots for Preschool. Each class will have a maxim…

Hi everyone! Meet Gomer, the brave dog who just donated his blood to save a life of another dog. Just like people, dogs sometimes need a blood transfusion and rely on donors to help. When my sister Japs, read a post on Facebook that a pet owner is looking for a blood donor because a 9 year old shih tzu needs to undergo blood transfusion due to ehrlichiosis, (definition: Ehrlichiosis is a bacterial illness transmitted by ticks that causes flu-like symptoms), her heart was touched in the post so she immediately contacted the pet owner if her dog can be a blood donor and they agreed on the terms.

Just to give you a short background, Japs and Francois #TeamAzur has 3 healthy, active and smart dogs. They are not pure bred, they are AsPins (Asong Pinoy) but still, these dogs are loved. These dogs gives emotional benefit as that of a human friendship.

Just like other dogs, Gomer is also naughty. One time he chewed Japs' grading sheets! Oh my!
